THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE -To Plead for a Return of Constitutional Government-

Why Try to Stave Off Communism in Foreign
Countries While Adopting It Here at Home?
Seagram's Potent Product
Loosens Scientific Tongues
We thought for sure we were losing our grip and seeing things
on November 22 when a scientific article in the press leaped out at us
with a set of predictions to end all predictions.
This article told of a meeting of some of America's top-flight
scientists which was held in New York but not in a dignified auditorium
hall or assembly where scientists are accustomed to gather. Instead,
they got together in the directors' room at the Seagram Company's
headquarters to help celebrate the lOOth anniversary of the
firm's service as liquor distributors.
From the program outlined for the future, it appeared that the
egg-heads had gotten just a wee bit souped up on the potent product
of thC'ir host before giving their conclusions in an interview to the
press.
The conference took the form of a symposium on "The Next Hundred
Years" and following it the scientists gave out some weird prerlirtio.,
s o! Lhings which we may expect in the Bright New World of
Tomorrow as the result of scientific exp eriments and accomplishments.
First off, Americans of the future will work only from four to
eigh t hours per week according to this prediction. The scienti sts don't
say what we will do with all that spare time but no doubt they will
fill in this gap later.
Twins, t riplets or singles in infants will be born according to the
wish of their parents; there will be tr ansmission of thought to others
without the utterance of a word ; every one will enjoy perfect "mental
health" and human impulses will be controlled by pills and drops;
synthetic food will sustain us and this will be made from the sun and
ocean water and there will be a universal vegetable diet for all alike.
What floored us even more was the prediction by a Nobel prizewinner
who was present and participating in a big way. He offered
the suggestion that there would be set up in the New World Order a
bank for human spare parts where one, apparently, could get replacements
for worn-out organs of the body like buying a new inner tube
when a tire blows out.
Right here we are compelled to warn the scientists of the possibility
for a wide margin of error in such an arrangement. We can visualize,
for instance, a situation where the bills of lading might get mixed
up and a wrong spare part sent out on a rush order.
This could lead to confusion and embarrassment such as some
poor sap waking up .from the anesthetic after an emergency operation
and discovering that a wrong spare part of the human anatomy had
been sewed on in place of a lost ear and finding, let us say, a thumb
or a big toe sticking out from the side of his head.
Far be it from us to assume to give advice to the eminent scien ..
t is ts but we do not think that their next meeting should be held in
Seagram's emporium no matter how inviting and attractive such a
prospect may be.
We think they should hold their future meetings at the general
headquarters of the W. C. T. U.
We threw victory over the
Communists away in Korea; we
have drunk toasts with Khrushchev
and Bulganin; we sent them
congratulatory telegrams on the
anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution
and we turned our back
w hen the patriots of Hungary had
Communists on the run. That's
how we hate Communism.
There is a report that when, and
if, we get a Sputnik into the air,
we will not put a poor little dog
inside as the Russians did. We
will use a live man for a model
t raveller to the moon. And, boy,
would we love to be the one to
select the passenger? After all , we
can always get a new Chief J ustice.
In 1933 a President of the United States, with contemptuous
disregard for Constitutional procedure, extended
recognition to the barbaric and Godless Soviet
u.,ion by the simple expedient of personal correspondence
with the ruthless assassin who was then its Dictator.
Later this recognition of the Kremlin outlaws was made
officio( by the American government. In the interven·
~ng quarter century since this unfortunate action, the
rnfluence of the USSR hos swollen, e x tended and burgeoned
out to cover a vost part of the earth's surface.
Conversely, the prestige of the United States as a great
sovereign power, has dwindled and shrunk because of
the corroding influence of a relentless ond incessant
str·eom of Communist propaganda which has flooded
the chanr.t;:)s of communica'!ion in this country and perm;,
uted every area of human activity, Under this hellishly
clever and subtle barrage of poison, citizens of the
American Republic have been persuaded to gradually
divest themselves of their bas ic r ig hts a nd freedoms as
they have steadily absorbed the scarlet coloring of this
deadly philosophy. Fundamental principles laid down
bY the founding fathers have been surrendered one by
one, Constitutional Government shamelessly abandon ..
ed and the black mantle of Marxism draped over the
nation's economy and way of life.
There is no time like the beginning of a New Year for taking stock
and for earnest self-analysis to deter~ine what is wrong and where
we have blundered. This is true of individuals and of nations alike.
As 19_58 looms over the ho~izon a serious appraisal of the State
of the Umon 3:nd of our dome~ti~ and foreign policies of government
leads '7S to the mescapable convictiOn that we are a nation of morons being
bhndly led by political Quislings down the road that ends at the
graveyard of dead nations.
While we publicly decry Communism and shrink in horror at the
idea of having this odious designation applied to us as a people, we
dare not, in honesty, lift the curtain and reveal how far this deadly
cancer has eaten into the vitals of our own society.
Karl Marx was the father of Communism and, as it turns out, is
the posthumous architect of major policies of the three branches of the
American government. Few pieces of impor tant legislation have passed
the Congress in recent years, few directives or executive orders have
been issued by the White House and few rulings have been handed
down by the Supreme Court which did not, at some point, make concession
to the Communist Manifesto and bear its unmistakable imprint.
Recently we suffe red the humiliation, as taxpayers, of seeing an
entourage of 135 high officials and employes of the Fedea'fal government
journey all the way to Par is, at incalculable cost, for the pt-o.
cla imed obiective of perfecting plans to "contain Communism'' in
countries abroad while here at home the Supreme Court had recently
released thirty-eight Communist conspirators from jails, penitentiaries
and lower court convictions and the White House had selected fout
men for high government posts publicly listed as affiliated with an international
organization which an official committee of the Congress
had branded as the American branch of the Communist apparatus.
A proverbial injunction warns us that chari ty begins at home and
by the same token, the first places from which we should seek to root
ou t the lethal weed of Communism are not the decadent countries of
Europe but the agencies of government, schools, colleges and universi·
ties, churches, labor u nions, movie, radio and television industries,

Patriotic Americans Trv To
Oust ACLU From Campus
Real Republicans, not the Modern
type, are trying to oust the
American Civil Liberties Union
from the campus of Indiana University
at Bloomington, according
to information received at this
office.
The ACLU there is headed by
a notorious left-wing professor at
the University and the outfit is
working hand-in-glove with the
NAACP we are informed. There
is a strong campaign under way
to force white students to room
with Negroes in the dormitories.
Most Americans are familiar
with the defense of Communists
which the ACLU has offered in
the courts. Additional information
concerning this outfit's Communist
sympathy is given in House

to his problems. At the height of
the Little Roclc debacle 11-'lr. Maxwell
"Before I start my next year's crop,
I would like to get things straight,
since the Supreme Court has changed
so many things that the Constitution

Case For Impeachment?
(Dallas Morning News)
If you turn to Title 18, Sec.
1385, United States Code Annotated,
you will find that, as amended
in 1956, it reads:
"Whoever, except in cases and
under circumstances expressly
authorized by the Constitution or
Act of Con!p'ess, willfully uses
any part of the Army or Air
Force as a posse comitatus or
otherwise to execute the laws shall
be fined not more than $10,000
or imprisoned not more than two
years, or both. This section does
not apply in Alaska."
If that is the law, as Congress
intended it to be the law, it would
appear that the defenses of one
Dwight Eisenhower would be one
or more of the following:
1. Little Rock is in Alaska.
2. The President was not trying
to use the Army to execute the
laws but was merely trying to put
a spoke in the political wheel of
Governor Faubus.

MacMillan's Love Of The
Soviets Comes To Surface
On more than one occasion we have
pointed out that Harold MacMillan,
prime minister of England, is an In.
ternational Socialist. This was not
because we had any special informa·
tion not possessed by any one who
has informed themselves concerning
his political beliefs, but because his
book "The Middle Way" reveals
clearly and without eq-uivocation his
Marxist beliefs.
Now he comes out, after persuading
the President of the United States to
bring a delegation to Paris to con·
sider means of "containing COmmunism"
and proposes boldly that the
United States, along with all other
Western countries, sign a non·aggres·
sian pact with the Soviets and agree
to co·exist with them in peace and
harmony. He knows, if he knows
anything at all, that living in
peace and harmony with the war·
mongering Soviets is on the same level
as lying down in a den of rattle·
snakes.
The leadership of England is more
sympathetic to the Soviets than to
the United States and demonstrates
it on every possible occasion. Their
tie with us is based on the fact that
we continue to shovel out millions of
dollars to them to sustain their Social·
ist economy.
There is practically no difference
in the beliefs of Aneurin Bevan and
Harold MacMillan and the only no·
ticeable distinction is that the former
is a rough-neck and the latter a highbrow.
Both of them regard the Krem.
lin as tops.
From a Dallas subscriber: uPermit
me to say that I think your
paper is the most amusing and yet
the most thought-provoking that
I have ever read." Thanks, but
we're afraid that there is more
tragedy than amusement in the
current edition.-Editor.
Two twelve-year-old boys at
Dallas robbed and looted a school
then, in order to destroy their
finger prints, the litt:e hoodlums
set fire to the school and $10,000
worth of property was destroyed.
This is vandalism of the most vic4
ious nature but, to be perfectly
honest about it, is it any worse
than having armed troops shove
school children around with a
bayonet at their back? Corruption
breeds corruption.
Some Fort Worth capitalists are
establishing a cancer clinic of the
first magnitude in that city which,
in our opinion, is one of the most
humanitarian projects in which
philanthropists can engage. It is
to be hoped that the time will
come when the cancer of International
Communism which is eating
the heart out of the American Republic
will also be recognized and
similar means provided to combat
it.

to moral cowardice on the part of
the PTA.

Huntley had gathered for his pro·
gram a stable of extreme left·wing
newspaper men who represent the
American press around over the globe
for the purpose of airing their views
on the economic and political outlook
for the future. Subtly but definitely,
they planted the impression that the
standing of the American Republic
among its "allies" depends on con·
tinued Foreign Aid, eventual recognition
of Red China and continued attempts
to socially integrate the races
in schools and eleswhere.
Not a man among them had any
understanding of, or sympathy for,
the American form of government or
the fundamental principles underly·
ing it. All obviously were for the use

Georgia Attorney Trips
Up The Human Oracle
N.E.A., as Expected, Uses Crisis
To Demand Federal Aid Hike
Eleanor Roosevelt is never one to
confuse issues with facts but il is
seldom she is as neatly tripped in a
misrepresentation as she was recently
by R. Carter Pittman of Dalton,
Georgia.
(Houston Chronicle)
All of a sudden the entire nation
has become excited over something
which should have been evident to
all for many years, the fact that our
educational standards have declined
and are far below those of not only
Western Europe but even of Russia.
And as was to be expected. the Na·
tiona! Education Assn., \"thich it·
self is so largely responsible for the
lowering of standards, has pounced
upon this national dissatisfaction as a
lever with which to gain its great objective,
a vast expansion of federal
aid.
The N.E.A. has come up with a
program that is far more ambitious
than the school construction aid meas·
ures which Congress has rejected.
This time the emphasis is not on
aid for building schools. That part
of the program is buried down in a
broad group of proposals calling for
a 1958 federal expenditure of $1,100,-
000,000, to increase by big jumps
annually over a period of five years
to $4,600,000,000 in the fifth year.
The N.E.A., unhappy over the administration's
anticipated request for
$200,000,000 to $250.000,000 federal
aid to education, is striking while the
iron is hot with ts tremendously bigger
proposal for fe<!eral cash to aid
states in school construction, scholar.
ships, raising teachers' salaries and
what not.
In the lexicon of the Liberals a
"reactionary" is any one who opposes
changing American Constitutional
Government to International
Marxism.
As with so many other pressure
groups and notoriously in its own
case, the cry is that more money will
cure anything.
The N.E.A. did not have the integ.
rity to admit that the main trouble
with the American primary and sec.
ondary educational system is something
that money won't cure. It is a
deterioration of standards. It is "pro·
gressive education" which puts the
happiness of the pupil ahead of learning.
It is the theory that "life-adjustment"
classes such as dancing are
more important than mathematics. It
is the killing or subordination of competition,
the idea that Johnny must
not be made unhappy by letting him
know that other pupils are making
better grades, the practice of shunt·
ing pupils on to the next higher
grade whether they make passing
marks or not.
Powerful forces within the N.E.A.
itself are primarily responsible fo.r
the lowering of standards. But now
instead of admitting its errors and
demanding a tightening up of the
basics of education itself, the N.E.A.
seeks to use the current dissatisfac·
tion as a springboard for vastly increased
federal aid as if more money
were the cure for all evils.
A Brooklyn Grand Jury has
recommended that uniformed policemen
be assigned to every public
school in New York. According
to the jury's report conditions in
the schools are alarming and
school authorities are utterly unable
to cope with the situation.
By all means, let's continue to integrate
the schools.
In her question and answer column
in a left-wing magazine she was asked
why her husband included in a deed
to property which he owned in Georgia
a racial clause providing that the
property could never be re-sold to
Negroes.
"He told me at the time that he
disliked the restriction but there was
no other way a deed could be written
in that area," the oracle replied without
hesitation and added that her husband
was forced by Georgia law to
accept this restrictive clause.
There is only one thing wrong with
her statement according to Pittman,
renowned Georgia attorney and former
member of the Franklin D. Roosevelt
Warm Springs Memorial Commission.
It just isn't true.
The restrictive racial clause in the
Roosevelt deed was the first and only
one in Georgia history it was pointed
out. They don't need one in that
State but Roosevelt took no chances
and put it in any way.
It would have been much simpler
for her just to have written "I don't
know" but she avoids using that
phrase as religiously as she passes up
non-integrated banquets.
She has built herself a reputation
for being able to answer all questions
on all subjects and although she
goofed this one, it will not feaze her
in the least.
Before too much credence is
given the Gaither report, Congress
should first find out if Gaither
has been soft on Communism and
pooh-poohed fears of Communism
as aMcCarthyism". Could be that
this report is another method of
urging steps that wilL a spend us
out of existence".

that its subscription list has
dwindled from a high point of

high cost of printing.

For awhile there, we thought we
had something.
The United States Fifth Court
of Appeals in New Orle:ms reversed
the order of Federal Judge
William H. Atwell which held
that Dallas public schools must
be integrated at mid-term. And
early this month. the Supreme
Court of the United States actually
passed up the chance to free another
Communist when they turned
down the application of Morton
Sobel. convicted along with Ethel
and Julius Rosenberg, for a review
of his case.
These facts together with an
announcement from the Department
of Justice that no efforts
will be made from that source to
"strengthen" the infamous Civil
Rights law at the coming session
of Congress would seem to indicate
that professional integrationists
and others sympathetic to the
cause of Communism which is, of
course, back of the integration
movement. have decided to temporar
ily call a halt to their mongrelization
program.
It is believed that nation-wide
reaction to the Federal Police
State in Little Rock and to the
outbreak of violence and sex offenses
in schools which have been
integrated, news of which they
are having a hard time suppressing,
has served as a warning even
to hard-core integrationists that
they have gone too far and may
have bu ilt up a Frankenstein who
may yet destroy them.
While the press, radio and other
mediums of public communication
have either ·ignored or played
down the horrible conditions fo llowing
integration, the situation
is known to be getting out of hand
and the pro-Communist elements
who initiated and have prosecuted
the movement for integration now
seem inclined to ease off until
public indignation cools.
In our opinion, the real reason
is too much competition from certain
segments of the regular press
and from special pol itical, educational
and religious publications
which have taken over the job the
Daily Worker was supposed to
perform. There are hundreds of
periodicals who are promoting the
Communist cause faith fully with
the result that the Communists'
own or~an is being crowded out
of the field.
Our Deepest Gratitude For Being
Remembered at Christmas Time
It is a similar case to that which
existed when the Socialist and
Communist Parties were crowded
o(f the bal1ot at election time by
the two Major Parties who stole
their platforms thereby making it
unnecessary for the Socialists and
Communists to go to the expense
or putting out their own tickets.
Soviet leaders have always instructed
their followers in this
country to let those who are supposed
·to be non-Communists do
their work for them and that is
what is happening.
Off-hand, we would say that the
Daily Worker will not be missed.
Their editorial policy will be carr
ied on by magazines, newspapers
and other publications which do
not carry the Communist symbol
on their mastheads but promote
the Communist cause through
their news and editorial co1umns.
We have tried to thank each and
every one of our subscribers for
the generous gifts of money for
the paper and for the personal
presents wh ich came to us during
the Christmas holidays and we
take this occasion to again tell
them how deeply their kindness
and generosity is appreciated.
We hope we may continue to
prove worthy of such thoughtfulness
and consideration by those
who do us the honor to subscribe
to our paper and to the principles
of government for which the paper
stands.
There is one lovely lady, however,
whom we have been unable
to thank for her wonderful gift
because she is and has been since
receipt of it, at some unknown
point in one of her numerous trips
around over the country and our
thanks and expressions of gratitude
will have to wai t until we
can catch up with her.
The gift was a beautiful hi-fi
record player for our office and
the wonderful background music
which it affords will give us pleasure
every day in the year and
should inspire us to greater effort.
In connection with do-gooders
and meddle1·s generally, a good
friend in Long Beach, California,
tells this story: Two Boy Scouts
were standing on a stTeet corner
when questioned by a passer-by
as to what their good deed for the
day had been. The older Scout
answered: "Sir we just helped a
little old lady across the street".
At this point the second Boy Scout
broke in: "It sure was a hard job,
too, and she put up such a fight
we had to carry her. She didn·t
want to go across the street.''
From a West Palm Beach, Florida
patriot: "You write so beautifully
and think so clearly and
have such a grand sense of humor
that the deadly serious condition
of our country that you must perforce
write about should slip the
mo1·e easily into reluctant minds.
And it does, too. Heaven knows
that something has to break
through the dense apathy and
humor is one of the best ways."
Scarcely a day passes that the
wisdom, foresightedness and patr
iotism of the late Senator Joseph
R. McCarthy of Wisconsin is not
demonstrated anew to the people
of the Republic which he tried so
gallantly to save from Communism.
Also we have concrete evidence
that the Wisconsin statesman who
was so cordially hated and feared
by Modern Republicans, Democratic
Fair Dealers, and other proCommunists,
held a place in the
hearts of the American people not
enjoyed by any other public servant
in history.
This has been proved many
times both before and since the
Senator's tragic death and the
latest evidence is provided in a
handsomelv-bound volume of eul~
ogies to him which includes all
material praising his work and his
selfless devotion to his country
which appeared in the Congressional
record.
Although the practice of having
eu l o~ies of any President, Senator
or Congressman who dies in office
orinted and bound goes back
to 1894. no similar volume has
consumed the space necessary to
reproduce the words of praise
whi~h the McCarthy book reQuired.
It contains 354 pages which is
more than four time<; the leneth
of that which recorded the tributes
to F ranklin D. Roosevelt and
which contained only 84 pages.
It seems fitting at this oin to
reiterate that noboCTy ove oe
McCarthy except the American
people.
Racial Propa~anda Makes
Progress In Dark Africa
The same forces of World Communism
who are promoting racial
mixing in the United States are
equally active in other parts of
the world and their diabolic
scheme for mongrelization is reported
to be especially vicious in
Africa where blacks outnumber
whites more than a thousand to
one.
In Kampala, Uganda, a small
British protectorate the edict has
gone fo rth that black, white aY!d
brown races will be mixed in the
schools of that small city in the
heart of Africa, beginning in January.
British and other white parents
there vigorously objected to having
their children retarded bv Africans
who can't speak English to
say nothing of the dane;er of contracting
diseases peculiar to the
chn~"P'1 of tl-te jun~le tribes.
But the Communists who are
directing the world movement for
racial mixin~ have been relentless
:-,.,d in Afr;,..,. ac; in the United
States and elsewhere, they first
.e:ot control of the school authorities
and the church dignitnies
of the area and the job was done.
Educators and church leaders
who ar e almost invariably babes
in the woods politically and who
are su ckers for Communist propagarida,
fell in line in the small
Afr ican community just as they
have in the United States and probably
never lost a night's sleep because
of their part in contributing
to human depravity.

,J.nua..y, 1958 THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE
Why The Rockefeller God Speed The Day When MOtU: . .DEADLY STILL
Report Should Be Rejected We Recapture Our Freedom :(IndianapoHs stac>
If there is any one man in the
whole world ·,vhose suggestions or
plans should not be considered by
the American government, that man
is any one of the Rockefeller clan.
We say this because of the record
of the Rockefeller Foundation which,
under the present generation of that
once respected family, has spent milHans
upon millions of dollars to Socialize
the American educational SYStem
and which, unfortunately, has
largely succeeded.
The records of the Reece Committee
of Congress and the Institute of
Pacific Relations give an idea of how
many pro-Communists have been subsidized
by that Foundation and how
many subversives ha.ve been enabled
to add their talent to the Interna·
tional conspiracy for a Communist
One·World government because of
Rockefeller generosity.
And yet when Nelson Rockefeller
recently submitted recommendations
of his committee for a military dictator
over the armed forces of the United
States, it was accepted with as much
fanfare, publicity and respectful consideration
as might have been accorded
one of the soundest thinking
and dedicated Americans in the coun·
try.
Among those composing the committee
were a sprinkling of respectable
persons and the balance might
have constituted an authentic Who's
Who in the House Un-American Ac·
tivities Committee files.
In our opinion, only one good,
sound reason is needed !or the re·
jeclion of the Rockefeller recommendations
and that is the fact that a
Rockefeller made them.
HEW Department Should
Be Completely Abolished
If there is any remaining spark
of integrity among our national
lawmakers or any concern on
their part for Constitutional government,
the Department of
Health, Education and Welfare
will be dismantled by the same
process through which it was set
up.
There was no earthly reason
for creating a new Cabinet post
in the first place and it was set
up merely to give jobs to the
President's Socialist friends and to
promote the cause of Federal control
of the public school systems
of the country.
And this Folsom character who
heads it now has a one-track mind
on the subject and is determined
to capture the schools come hell
or high water. The White House
Conference on Education failed to
accomplish this; there is strong
opposition in Congress to the proposal
and the people are determined
that domination of their
schools by Washington shall not be
brought about.
Nevertheless, Folsom goes merrily
along with the President's
plan for Federal domination and
has some kind of a committee now
working on it which will make
recommendations to Congress
that millions be appropriated for
the purpose of taking the nation's
public schools away from local
control and delivering them into
the keepin_g of global-minded politicans
in Washington.
The American Republic has deteriorated
so gradually, political
morals have sunk so steadily 3.nd
the suppression of freedom has
been accomplished so cleverly that
it is hard for the average American
to realize to what depths of
depravity we have-jallen . .
Not long ago, for instance, ther.e
appeared in the press a ":Fourth
Annual Report11 to the President
made by the Committee on Government
Contracts which would
once have made any decent American's
blood reach the boiling
point.
The report of this committee
of which Vice President Richard
Nixon is the head informed the
President that Nixon felt that
"the committee has developed
new and effective tools for identifying
and correcting discriminatory
situations where work is being
performed under government
contract." The committee is concerned
solely in mixing Negroes
in with White workers and has no
interest whatever in whether or
not the jobs for which taxpayers
must put up the money are performed
with efficiency, speed and
accuracy. The report added that
"discrimination against Negroes
by government contractors is
greater in white collar areas than
in production tasks." Not one word
about idiotic government rules
cons tit uti n g "discrimination"
against white employers and employes
who may not want to hire
or work with a person simply because
he has a black skin.
The Vice President was declared
to have set up a snooping agency
through members of the committee
who make annual examinations
of employment practices and as
having asked government agencies
"to keep a close check on the
matter."
Just imagine elected officials of
the government in this Constitutional
Republic daring to tell free
Americans who they shall or shall
not hire and fire.
Just imagine them using Federal
governing machinery as their
own private instrument for attracting
Negro votes by impinging
on the God-given right of decent
and self-respecting American citizens
to bring into their own
places of employment any person
they choose or refusing to have
those around the place who, in
their opinion, may be undesirable.
God speed the return of the day
when Americans recapture their
lost fundamental freedoms, including
the right to hire and fire at
their own discretion, and when
they show their contempt for such
characters as those composing this
committee by ordering them out
of their business establishment
just as they would any other
stumble-bum whose presence is
offensive and unwelcome.
There has been a lot written
about Houston being the aMuTder
Capitat of the Wortd"' but not
much has been made public about
who commits the majority of the
murders which have given the city
this terrible reputation. Out of the
last 124 murders committed 1n that
city, 83, or approximately 67 per
cent, were committed by Negroes.
This breakdown appeared recently
in a Houston newspaper.
As an opening wedge toward Federal
domination of American education,
past proposals for F-ederal fi~
nancing of schools have been bad
enough. 'But the new' idea feverishly
taking proposed legislative shape in
Washington is worse yet. Like the
so-called sch,col construction bills, it
is pretty enough on the surfa : e. The
idea is to grant Federal scholarships
to bright but poor students who might
not otherwise go to college. The excuse
is that we need them as sc ientists
and engineers.
We suspect the scholarship proposal
is a big part of what t he Federal
aid lobbyists have been driving
at all along. They are simply taking
advantage of the present hysteria
about the nation's scientific needs to
put over the program. If they can
·get it approved, they will be well on
the way to creation of a federally
selected s~holastic elite, financed by
taxpayers' money and chosen according
to standards dictated in Washington.
No such program cculd endure
for long before the political leanings
of the "scholars" became an issue in
their selection
Look what is entail ed in the program
now being whipped up in the
ever hopeful Department of Health ,
Edu:!ation and Welfare : Stepped up
methods are proposed to id entify
bright students as early as the freshman
year in high school, so they
can be "guided" from then on in
their choice of studies. Washington,
of course, would dictate the methods
of identification. It would also establi
sh the kind of advice to be given.
The faithful vnssals who adhered to
bureau~racy's standards· would be rewarded
with a free trip to college.
We are not supposed to mention
cost at this time when the nation's
welfare is somehow supposed to be
so much more at stake than it was
six months ago. Yet it does seem worth
noticing that the minimum estimate
of bright students who don't go to
college now is 150,000 a year. At
$1 ,000 each, which is a low estimate
of the cost of a college year, this
would mean a cost to the people of
$150,000,000 the first year, $300,-
000,000 the second year, and up to
$600,000,000 in the fourth year when
600,000 Federal scholars would be on
the list. And don't forget that it costs
the Federal government heavily to
spend money. A new bureau would be
necessary, and" if anyone thinks it
would operate on less than $300.000,-
000 a year itself, they don't know
their big government.
The reason we do mention costs
is that there seems to be an easier,
cheaper and better way to do the job.
It calls for an enlightened national
leadership more interested in results
than in Federal expansion. It also
calls for a small measure of sacrifice
in the place where sacrifice would
least hurt America, the Federal bur·
eucracy. We respectfully suggest that
this better way is to offer income
tax concessions to encourage private
industry and private individuals to
finance more college scholarships.
The Federal tax laws now are, in
the main, hard on scholarships. A
philanthropist has no inducement at
all to send a youth to college who is
not related" to him. Corporations are
in little better shape. The Federal
government a:tually discourages the
private creation of scholarships which
it now wishes to include in an everwidening
welfare state.
By all means let us increase our
college scholarships, but let us do it
the Ameri~an way. If tax money must

We Helned Push Indonesia
Into Th~ Communist Orbit
An illustration of our "hi-par ..
tisan" foreign policy under Fair
Deal Democrats and Modern Republicans
is afforded in the p:tiable
case of Indonesia.
The Indonesians were doing all
right under the Dutch when a
campaign for "independence''
~~~~:t~ ;It ~~~efra~~s~;~~~ u~~~~
Washington~ jumped into the middle
of it with both feet and while
our diplomats didn't know what
they were doing and had no understanding
of the actual situation in
Indonesia, we went all out for
independence for the Indonesians."
They've had "independence"
there for eight years now and the
condition in which they find
themselves is incredible, with the
Communists sitting by grinning
and waiting to gobble them up.
As the Bloomington, Indiana,
Herald-Tribune points out the
vast "riches of the Indies" have
virtually disappeared. Rubber, tin,
copra and palm oil once exported
in enormous quantities now produce
no income and the people
there face famine because of a
shortage of the rice crop.
This is the result of mismanagement
by the ignorant people in
charge and although the taxpayers
of the United States have been
robbed of $350,000,000 which
Washington politicians sent to Indonesia
since 1949 for "warding
off Communism", it is generally
considered that it is merely a
question of time until the Communists
take over.
There is no new lesson to be
learned in the Indonesian debacle.
It is an old story that meddling
into other persons' business, either
by a nation or an individual, can
produce only trouble, discontent
and chaos.
Our miserable failure in Indonesia
and elsewhere, however, will
not keep us from doing the same
thing next time and when trouble
of a local nature and which does
not concern us flares up in some
other remote area of the world , we
will pitch in, take over and louse
up the works again.
Nothing could amuse and please -
the Soviets more than our clumsy
attempts to run the business of
other countries while allowing the
governing machinery of our own
to be shot to pieces by those
charged with the responsibility of
protecting and preserving it.
There is to be a repercussion
from the despicable action of the
Federal Judge in Tennessee who
gave six courageous citizens of
Clinton a suspended sentence for
objecting to the de~segregation
ruling of the Supreme Court. Theae
six citizens are going to appeal
their case as they not only want
personal exoneration but to preserve
vital principles of the Republic.
Their motives are worthy
and honorable but the Supreme
Court being what it is, only God
knows what the firial outcome
will be.

We want Federal scholarships even
less than we want Federal school

While Congress Is
Probing The Pentagon
How About lemnitzer?
All Americans who keep abreast
of events will probably remember
General Lyman L. Lemnitzer.
He is the character who was
put in charge of the office of Foreign
Military Assistance and was
responsible for the delivery of
arms to Korea when Congress voted
large sums for this purpose.
The money was made available
In July, 1949. In October of that
same year, a Senate Committee
questioned Lemnitzer about how
much of the $10,230,000 earmarked
for Korea had been sent and
how much material had been delivered.
Lemnitzer squirmed and twisted
and refused to answer until members
of the committee practically
twisted his arm when he finally
admi tted that only $200 of the
amount had been made available
to Korea.
At about that point the incident
seem ~ d to fade out of public print
and, so far as we know, the matter
was hushed up.
The last record we saw of it
was a U. P. release in the Shreveport
Journal on July 6, 1957, which
reported that Lemnitzer was on
his way from Taipei to Washington
to take over his new duties as
vice Chief of Staff of the U. S.
Army.
While Congress is looking into
the affairs of the Pentagon, perhaps
it might be well to find out
and bt the American people know
if the other $10,229 ,800 was ever
sent to Korea and if not, what
happened to it.
Of course ten million dollars,
according to Washington's standard
of values, is merely chicken
feed but out in the hinterland this
amount is not hay and the taxpayers
might like to know all
about it.
And while they are looking into
it, Congress might ask under what
particular Pentagon policy General
James M. Gavin, the Army's
Missile Chief, was denied promotion
for doing his duty and Lemnitzer
was promoted for not doing
his.
Washinqton is the battleground
for the World and Soviet agents
swarm in the hotels, the dubs,
and in government offices, says
the Florida Catholic official church
organ of that denomination.
Names pleasing to the Soviets,
according to this publication, are
Oppenheimer, Hiss, Kennan, Stassen
and Watkins. "Dean Acheson
is mentioned as the Kerensky of

Our " gains" at the Paris Confer
ence were set forth in the press
as the agreement of our "alties"
to allow missile bases to be established
in the countries involved.
But thz real and actual result was
not disclosed in regular newspapers
but in o1ficial communications

Indianian Expresses View
On Jenner's Refusal To Run
An Indianapolis lady who is
highly informed on politics ih
that State as well as throughout
the nation has given us her views
on the stated intention of Senator
William E. Jenner not to be a candidate
for re-election as United
States senator from Indiana. Her
communication was as follows:
Willjam E. Jenner had no doubt
of his re-election to the Senate of
the United States, when he withdrew
his name from nomination
to that office. He took over the
leadership of the Republican Party
in Indiana two years ago. He
knows he has solid backing here.
I think he doesn't know how
strong he is throughout the country.
This respite which he has
taken (which was much needed)
will give him a chance to test his
strength outside of Indiana. Personal
letters to him from individuals
of other states will help in
forming his opinion. If there is
real honest-to-goodness support
from the country as a whole, I
believe he would consider national
leadership. He is a good
politician as well as an honest
statesman.
A recent pleasant visitor to our
office was Admiral John Crom.melin,
retired, of Alabama, known
in that State as one of Alabama's
five fighting Navy Crommelins.
Two of his brothers who were in
the Naval Air Force lost their
lives in the South Pacific during
World War II. Admiral Crommelin
not only knows the score concerning
the Communist World
Conspiracy, and what makes it
tick, but has the courage to give
this information to the people in
the many public addresses he
makes in various sections of the
country. The Admiral is currently
a candidate for Governor of Alabama.
Out in Marin County, California,
"His Royal Higness Mwuabistia
Nkabouri Kanstouri", ballyhooed
and wined and dined as heir to
the throne of the African Bangui
Ubangi Shari tribe had the town
on its ear. He rode high in the
small towns of Marin, Lodi, Oreville
and Chico as the gdlible morons
tried to outdo each other in
paying him homage. The bubble
was rudely shattered when cops
swarmed down, arrested him and
hauled him off to the pokey. He
was a common cotton-picking Negro
from the swamps of Florida
and was wanted by the police in
many places where he had worked
his skin games.
In Houston a Negro woman stabbed
a white boy who is now near
death in a hospital there. He objected
to having her sit beside him
in a bus and the inevitable knife
flashed and the boy was dangerously
wounded. This dastardly
crime is chargeable to the cowardly
management of the Houston
Transit Company which took down
the color signs when some court
decision ruled this had to be done
in some far-off place having nothing
whatever to do with Houston.
If all the hysteria over the Soviet
Sputniks was, as many believe,
framed up to compel the
American people to further spending
and thereby making Lenin's
prediction come true, it is certainly
accomplishing its objective.
We are in a 'fair way toward
!~~~~ing ourselves out of exist-
The Eisenhower administration
is now talking in terms of a $74,-
000,000,000.00 budget which sets
an all-time record in an era where
squandering has reached unbelievable
proportions.
At first the President talked of
cutting non-military projects to
the bone in order to keep the military
expense at the minimum but
later he indicated that he is going
to again try to subsidize the public
schools and if he is successful
this will cost untold millions.
All this is the more tragic when
we consider that the Sputniks are
of our creation and not of the
Soviet's. Traitors among American
scientists either sold or gave
the Communists the secret formulas
necessary to building these
missiles and Harry Dexter White,
Soviet spy in the United States
Treasury gave the plates to Russia
for printing untold millions of
dollars which, so far as we know,
they still possess.
Try to avoid the unpleasant
truth as we will, we can't escape
the fact that our worst enemies
and the most dangerous foes of
the American Republic are among
those who call it home.
High Appointee of the White
House Would Flaunt Law
One of the most !lagrant examples
of contempt for Constitutional Government
and for orderly procedures
in the administration of the law was
afforded in an incident happening in
Dallas early in November.
Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh of Indiana,
member of the President's infamous
Civil Rights Commission and
shown on the letterhead of the Institute
of International Education,
Inc., as a trustee was in that city
to attend a football c;:ame.
In an interview to the local press
he stated that while ttre law providing
for the Commission stipulated
that it be held to voting rights of
Negroes the "commissioners may decide
to study school integration, housing
discrimination, employment practices
and other parts of the problem".
In other words, regardless of what
the law on the subject may be, the
commissioners will be a law unto
themselves, and act accordingly.
No wonder law and order in this
country is at an all-time low and
crime at its highest point.
How much have you read in the
regular press about the riots, the
killings, the rapes and the violence
in general between the races
in other cities outside the South
lately? What about Philadelphia,
De~rOtt, Grosse Point, Oakland,
Chtcago to mention only a few? If
the truth were known about the
events that have taken place since
the Negroes got the idea that they
have been given a license to do
their worst, segregation in every
phase would be rest01·ed tomorrow.

Some More About The
Institute of International
Education, Incorporated
On several occasions in recent
editions, we have mentioned the
I nstitute of International Education,
Inc., and have quoted official
government documents listing
this organization as an "American
Branch of the Communist Interna ..
tional." This information is contained
on pages 4 and 6 of Union
Calendar 838 issued May 26, 1956,
by the Committee on Un-American
Activities of the U. S. House of
Representatives.
We also listed the names of
four men appointed to high office
within recent months who are
shown on the literature of the
Institute of International Education,
Inc., as being trustees of that
organization. Two of them were
members of the President's Civil
Rights Commission, the Rev. Theodore
M. Hesburgh of Indiana
and Dr. J ohn A. Hannah of Michigan
and Elsworth Bunker, named
Ambassador to India and James
D. Zellerbach appointed Ambassador
to Italy, the latter two of
whom have been confirmed by the
Senate.
What we did not know at the
time, and therefore did not include
in our editorial, was the
manner in which the Institute of
International Education is financed.
We now have in our possession
additional literature of the I nstitute
from its headquarters in New
York, including a folder titled
"The Aims and Programs of the
Institute of International Educa~
tion." Under the sub-head of "Finances,"
the folder says: "The
administration budget for 1956-
1957 is approximately $1,473,000.
About half of this was received in
fees from programs that liE (In~
stitute of International Educ9.tion)
administered for other private and
public organizations. These fees
came chiefly from the U. S. gov~
ernment and from Foundations ... "
If any situation ever called for
clarification, we believe this one
does. An official Committee of
the Congress of the United States
lists an organization as the "American

J anuary, 1958 THE SOUT HE RN C O NS ERVATIVE Page 7
"Old Sins Have Long Shadows" Says
Noted Author In Challenging South
A writer in the East who is the
author of around a half dozen
best-selling novels within recent
years is convinced that Southern
politicians are to blame for the
abandonment of Constitutional
Government in the United States.
I n a personal letter to the editor
this writer indulges in some plain
talk about the responsibility of
the South for present tragic conditions.
While we do not agree
one hundred per cent with the
writer's views, we think that there
is justification for the charges in
most cases. While deleting the
name of the author, we are printing
the communication in full:
"Dear Ida: You Southerners think
you got troubles about integration
and the Negro Problem? 0 Baby! I
guess your liberal Southern newspapers
don't tell you what's happening
up here. Do you read about the
race riots in Chicago, and Boston and
Philadelphia and other Northern
cities? Not riots over a few kids, or
by kids, but by hundreds and even
thousands of adults at a time! Police
rush around with clubs, gun and tear
gas. Editorials in New York State
clamor for control of the Negroes,
who cause 74% of all the crimes committed,
and in this State there are
constant demands on the part of taxpayers'
groups, politicians and others
that our Welfare laws be amended
to prevent Negroes from coming up
from the South and going immediately
on relief and settling down to
making cash through constant illegitImacy.
I enclose an editorial in today's
Buffalo Evening News on the subject!
"The Negro has always been unwelcome
up North, and don't let
your Liberal newspapers tell you
di!Cerently. Tl"_e unions won't let him
enter their strongholds; he can't get
even a menial job if a white man
wants it first. He is hated and despised
- and completely segregated.
The sufferings inflicted on him are
appalling. You should see the Negro
slums in the North. They would sicken
you. Teachers quit schools in
droves when Negro children enter.
There are city riots when even decent
professional Negroes try to enter
white trash neighborhoods. Why don't
a few of you Southerners come North
and see what the Negro is enduring
here, and always has endured, and
you'll go back full of indignation and
anger and wonder if there is any
Christianity left in the world.
"Are you people in the South angry
about the Supreme Court decision of
1954? Child! You should have heard,
and you ought to h..:ar now, what the
North says about it. Discount our
own Libliar newspapers up here.
They were born liars and live as
liars and will die as liars. The people's
columns in the Northern newspapers
raged with fury against that
decision, and expressed sympathy for
the Southern citizens, both white and
Negro. The hatred for the Negro is
something to hear and see. Moreover,
it is extremely dangerous. You have
tensions down there in Dixie? Oh,
Sister! The tensions in all the big
Northern cities between the whites
and the Negroes would set your heart
to thumping.
"And who made that infamous de-
Eleanor - a Democrat! Incidentally,
most of the men in the Court are
Southerners, and that's what is burning
up the North. Do we like Earl
Warren? We loath him. He could
have had a million headshrinkers at
his elbow demanding integration, and
if it hadn't been for the Southern
"gentlemen" on the bench that Decision
wouldn't have been passed.
"I ncidentally, my dear, let us be
fair. When the North was exploited
tax-wise for the benefit of the South,
the South was very smug about it all
and eagerly accepted the money
wrung from the pockets of millions
of Northern working-men and women.
The South didn't discover States
Rights until 1954, but New York
State discovered it long before that
and warned the Federal Governmeo.t
to keep out of our affairs, and
won, too. The Feds tried to move in
on power developments and we kicked
them out. Old sins have long
shadows, and the South is now suffering
from its sins by overlooking
OUR rights up North, and robbing
us blind for housing, governmental
projects, and God knows what else.
Remember the TVA?
"Besides, who elected Roosevelt
and Truman, in the first place? The
South, except in 1948, went heavily
for them, and stood beside them. Look
at Sparkman, and a few others I
could name with appropriate epithets
if I were not too polite. And what are
your politicians doing about the decision
of 1954? Listen to Rayburn and
Johnson just once!
"I have absolutely no use !or Faubus.
He is an internationalist (as are
most Southern politicians) of the
worst order; he was a New Deal
light, burning bright in the Communist
murk. When those nine Negro
kids tried to enter t he school in
Little Rock why didn't he do the decent
and dignified thing, and simply
close the schools - as Virginia and
other States intend to do if pressed?
But, 0 no, he must call out the National
Guard and deliberately provoke
the Federal Government - not
that I have any use for it, either. He
is despised among the decent people
in Arkansas. Look at the voting record
for foreign aid and aid to Com~
munist and Socialist countries on the
part of Southern Senators and Congressmen.
To a man, they've eagerly
supported it, while many of our Northern
Congressmen fight to the death
agai nst it. I could name you a score,
at least. I could name you Congressmen
from the North who voted
against Lend-Lease, and who denounced
Roosevelt's efforts to get us
into a war that was none of our business.
But give me the name of ONE
Southerner who opposed Lend Lease
and tried to keep us out of war!
Just ONE, please.
"Please don't say it was Northern
Democrats who took the Democratic
Party away from the South. It was
Southern Democrats who destroyed
the old Democratic Party with their
lavish spending, their support of high
taxes, their fondness for the U.N.,
their evil internationalism, their cry
for more and more Federal intervention
in the affairs of all States. I have
the documented records. Yes, old sins
cast long shadows.

Transplanted Chicago Negress
Longs For Her Old Mississippi Home
A Negro woman who was lured
to Chicago from her home in Mississippi
eleven years ago on false
promises of a better life in the
North has written an amazing let~
ter to a Southern newspaper
which expresses, in our opinion,
the majority sentiment of the race
before International Communists
stepped in to solve their "problem".
I n a letter to the Jackson,
Mississippi, Daily News, this woman
whose name is Sudie Mae
Lewis, shows more understanding,
sincerity and personal integrity
than all of the spurious statesmen
in Congress, in the White House
and Supreme Court put together
who have undertaken to handle
the racial issue to their own political
benefit and who have messed
it up with immeasurable tra ~
gedy to both races. The letter said:
Editor Daily News: I have written
several letters to the newspapers
and magazines supported by
the NAACP but have yet to see
one in print or a word of acknowledgement.
So, once again I turn to
my white friends tu get action.
I have taught many children in
the Deep South. I was born and
raised in the cotton fields myself.
To some, this may sound like a
starved, inhuman existence, but let
me say here that those were the
happiest days of my life.
I am getting on in years now:
my health is gone. I long to spend
my last days, and be buried, in
Missis~ippi soiL
I want my own people to lay me
away in .a Christian manner in a
free churchyard.
Eleven yea rs ago I heeded the
condemn Joe came unanimously from
the Nor th and the Middle West. I
have the record, too.
"How many Southern Senators demand
a Third Party? Not one! But
in the North I've heard hundreds of
conservative Republican and Democratic
politicians speak seriously of
it. The money being donated for a
third party is coming almost exclusively
from the North. I know. I'm
part of the movement. When it became
evident that Roosevelt was
pushing us into a war the clamor
against him came strongly from the
Northern people, but Oh, how the
South adored the idea! They were
always Anglophiles. I was all over
Florida last year, tal king to Southerners,
and one would think I had
insulted the Holy Ghost, Itself, when
I declared myself against English
Socialism and ''liberalism" and America's
intervention in the war, and the
U.N. But I can get hundreds of people
up here to come hear me, at the
drop of a hat, to talk aGainst the
U. N., taxation and internationalism.
I know. I have a roomful of Patriotic
citations which I have received from
Northern organizations. - Practically
ALL the patriotic organizations
fighting Communism, U. N. 'sm, the
16th Amendment, etc., etc. are organized
up here. Where are there
such organizations in the South, pray
tell me? In fact, a Northern Senator
told me only a month ago that if we
are to free ourselves from the U. N.,
get rid, of the income tax, restore
our freedoms and States Rights, and
bring back the Constitution, we'll
have to put a curb on the South! Yes,
ma'am!!!"
wild tales told down there of the
wonderful North. I came to Chicago
with the hope of becoming
a society lady, like I had heard so
much about .
But what I want to tell my people,
the colored people of Mississippi,
is that: J ust being allowed
to sit up in front in crowded buses
and here and there a colored child
in school with the whites; does
not mean and never will mean
that the respectable white pzople
will take you into their homes and
their hearts freely and fully, as
they do one of their own kind.
And the whites who will and do
are just mixed breed trash that
any self respecting Negro will do
well to shun.
I beg you to listen to one who
k nows about these things. For your
own sake and the welfare of coming
generations, do not push integration.
Stop and think these
things through.
It just means giving up your own
life and none of us can ever be
happy trying to adjust and conform
to the rigid rules laid down for us
by white society.
When you give up your own
schools and churches you are giving
up your last hold on yo:Jr
precious freedom.
Down there you can meet and
mingle and serve God in your own
way, shout and sing, if you feel
like it.
Here, you would be thrown in
jail if you attempted to shout to
God in church, or anywhere else.
Down there you can have your
own enterta inment in your own
way. Nobody d isturbs you so long
as you don't di sturb the peace.
You have as good schools and
churches there, as you will ever
have anywhere in this world and
a lot more freedom than you will
find on Northern trails.
II you can't be anything worth~
while in a segregated school, you
certainly won't amount to anything
in an integrated school.
One other thing I have learned
and want to pass on to you - nine -
out of every ten dollars you hand
over to the NAACP goes to pay
white agitators of newspapers and
magazines. This is no heresay; I
have worked for them and I know
their price is high.
They are well paid to peddle
their agitation and stir up trouble.
And all they care for is the money
you pay them, Just try paying
them a social call.
Stick to your own way of life.
Be proud of your own race instead
of trying to push and shove
into places where you won't Oe
happy. I have no regrets I was
born black. I have done what I
could to help my race improve
their way of life.
Don't blame the white race, or
any other race ~or your failures.
The fault is purely your own. We
all have the same opportunity. It's _
up to each race to rise or fall.
You've never had it so good as
you have in dear old Dixie today.
God, being willing, I am coming
home to Mississippi this fall, where
black is black and white is white,
and all a friend to man.

P•g• a
Wisdom of McCarthy Comes
Back to Haunt the Senate
Senate Majority Leader Lyndon
Johnson and others of his party
are screaming to high heaven over
the bungling and delay of the
missile program of the Pentagon
but, somehow, there is a hollow
ring to their voices in view of what
they did to McCarthy when he
said the same thing almost two
years ago.
In April. 1956, the intrepid and
f earless Wisconsin Senator who
always went to the heart of the
subject without weighing the political
consequence to himself, said
on the floor of the United States
Senate:
"Despite all warnings about
Communist-guided missile pro~
gress, we still have received no
assurance from our own government
that the United States is going
all out in an effort to catch
up with the Soviet Union. On the
contrary, we know that the chief
proponent of a crash-guided mis~
sile program ... lost his job two
months ago because he advocated
~~fow~l s~~t.u~h~rj~~~· ~~~~~:~=
sional committee with full sub~
poena powers to investigate the
~~~~e~ v~!J:~~ e~~o;~~~ p~~~e~~
. . . If we are falling behind in
the development of a weapon that
may permit Communism to con·
quer us, then we must find out
who is responsible and what motivated
those who are responsible."
When Senator McCarthy issued
this prophetic warning, there was
a big chunk of silence in Johnson's
corner which reverberated
throughout the Senate Chamber
and especially on his side of the
aisle.
Now two years and two Sputniks
later, Senator Johnson has
reached the same conclusion that
was advanced by a great and good
man in 1956 and while we are
glad he finally caught on, we
think two years is far too long a
period of time to elapse before
an idea sinks into the human
cranium.
Joe McCarthy was riding the
engine; Johnson has grabbed the
tail end of the caboose.
Patriots Who Deserve A
Special Star In Their Crown
All over the United States there
are men and women who cannot
financially afford to contribute to
organizations or publications en~
gaged in patriotic activities but
who are rendering invaluable service
to their country nevertheless.
These men and women constant~
ly circulate patriotic literature and
publications and many of them
spend money actually needed for
living expenses in buying postage.
Of course it is not very formid~
able competition for the big
Foundations and the left-wing or~
ganizations, to say nothing of taxfinanced
government agencies,
who are flooding the country with
- pro-Communist literature and who
do not have to be concerned about
the cost of their propaganda activities.
But these fine Americans are
deserving of the commendations
of all those who love the Republic
and are entitled to a special star
in their crowns.
THE SOUTHERN CONSERVATIVE
Communist Defense Lawyers Claim Supreme
Cour·t Is Robbing Them of Their Clients
Attorneys who specialize in defending Communists are becoming
worried, according to a pres's release under a Washington dateline on
December 12. Their concern stems from the fact that the Supreme
Court is releasing Communists from jail.s and penitentiaries and delivering
rulings which exonerate Communist defendents in such a steady
stream that the attorneys for these subversives fear that they will be
unable to make a living, and may have to turn to other professions.
Since these lawyers have specialized in defending Communists,
they have, of course, lost all respectable clients and legitimate legal
business.
The information was based on a tape recording obtained by investigators
for the Senate Internal Security Sub-Committee during
a meeting of Attorneys specializing in defense of Communist party of~
ficials which was held a t the Biltmore Hotel in New York in October
to discuss their legal problems.
Summed up, their conclusion was, in effect, that since the Supreme
Court has become largely a battery of defense lawyers for Communists,
Negroes and other minority groups, attorneys who specialize in such
things are being put out of business.
Since last May the High Court has freed thirty-eight top-level
Communists in this country, records of the Senate Internal Security
Sub-Committee reveal, has invalidated the Smith Act which banned
the advocacy of the forcible overthrow of the American government,
and has said, in effect, that when a Communist is charged with advocating
the overthrow of the government, it must be proved that such
advocacy would lead to force and violence.
The meeting at the Biltmore in New York was under the sponsorship
of the National Lawyers Guild and, according to the tape record~
ing one of the lawyers attending assured his comrades that even if
they decided then and there to advocate the violent overthrow of th .. e
American government, nothing would happen to them because of the
Supreme Court's recent rulings.
"Our job is to change the political climate of the country" remarked
one of the attorneys at the meeting who must have just awakened
from a Rip Van Winkle sleep since he was apparently unaware
that he was a little late with his proposal, and didn't know that this
was already accomplished.
Singled out for special praise by the Communist defense lawyers
at the meeting were Earl Warren, Chief Justice of the Court and Associate
Justices William 0. Douglas, Hugh Black and William J. Brennan,
the latter being the character whom the late Senator Joseph R.
McCarthy pointed out as soft on Communism when he asked his colleagues
in the Senate to refuse to confirm him.
"Appreciation Dinners" Are Often
A Joke On Those Who Finance Them
Around the middle of December a
rash of "appreciation dinners" broke
out all over the country.
In the event one is not familiar
with the term, an "appreciation dinner"
is peculiarly an American institution
which was born in the fertile
brains of the National Chairmen of
the two major political parties but
which is executed back in the hinterland
by gullible voters who furnish
the hall, the "vittles" and the
local orator to introduce the honoree.
So clever and subtle are the organizational
experts who promote these
dinners by remote control that those
who put up the money, haul in im·
portant guests and do the leg~work
generally, are usually convinced that
it was they who thought up the idea.
"Appreciation dinners" are given
to various lawmaking dignitaries of
both Houses of Congress and have
sundry objectives. Perhaps the Party
in power wants to promote some unpopular
legislation which will further
soak the long~suffering taxpayer
in which case the honoree of an "appreciation
dinner" is expected to exert
his charm and forensic attainments
in softening up the electorate
in his home State thereby reducing
the possibility of organized protest
from that section.
Or it may be that the Party out
of power wants to trot out one of
its spavined horses for approval by
local yokels before entering him in
the grand Presideqtial sweepstakes in
an effort to get back in power. Another
reason could be that the record
of the Party to which the honoree
belongs is pretty shabby and the
leaders figure that the glib tongue
of the recipient of the "appreciation
dinner" can convince his constituents
that he and his colleagues were performing
as far~seeing statesmen, rather
than double-crossing traitors, when
they voted against the economic interests
and internal security of the
United States.
If the honoree has a wife who is:
on to her job, she can work the
other side of the street by holding
forth at a tea !or the ladies. If he
is a bachelor, so much the better for
the feminine element of the elector~
ate is a pushover for the unmarried
man in high public office. After all,
he may be on the make for a wife
and even though she may not be a
candidate herself, almost every woman
has a daughter, a niece or a
friend who would exactly fill the bill
and who would rise and shine in
Washington.
And such are the vagaries of human
nature that, although the voters
may have called the honoree every
dirty name in the calendar during
some previous campaign or when he
voted contrary to their beliefs, many
of them are unable to resist attend~
ing these "appreciation dinners" and
applauding until they get calluses on
their hands.
During the period we mention,
there were around fourteen "appreciation
dinners" being held in various
sections ol the country by both Republicans
and Democrats and although
we have made earnest inquiry, we
have been unable to find out from
either the promoters or the guests at
such affairs just what the various honorees
had done to inspire "apprecia~
tion" on the part of the taxpayers.
January, 1958
National Church Council
Again Runs True To Form
At the meeting of the National
Council of Church es of Christ
held in St. Louis early in De~
cember, a new president was
chosen for the group.
It is almost laughable to specify
what type of person this new pres ..
ident of the NCC is because it is
somewhat like playing the same
record over and over again .
So we are not going lo enumerate
the extensive Communist
Front record of the Rev. Edwin
T. Dahlberg fir st because it is
not news since it is a familiar
pattern of those selected for that
post and second because this list
of his affiliations has been widely
published since his selection for
the job.
It has been estimated by thoughtful
Americans who are amazed
at the progress of the Communist
apparatus in its announced program
of infiltrating the churches,
that the hold of this deadly ideology
on American churches cannot
be broken until seventy per
cent of the ministers of the big
city churches are either re-con~
verted to Christianity or this same
percentage of such ministers are
muzzled by a financial boycott on
the part of individual church members.
What in the name of all that is
Holy can the good church people
of the American Republic mean
by following such leadership as
that offered them by the National
Council of Churches which is on
record as endorsing every proposal
sponsored by tba....A.m..er.i.
Communist Party and plugged in
the Daily Worker?
From the retired headmaster of
a bo11S' school: "Your lead editorial
·in the September edition
of the Southern Conservative titled
" Violent Hatred of White
South is back of Civil Rights Legislation"
deserves to rank with the
remarks of Patrick H,enry and
other immortal American states·
men."
One of the contributing factors
to our failure in the missile field
was probably the administration"s
concentration on getting the colored
vote by the sending of the
armed forces into Little Rock.
From a good friend in Chevy
Chase, Maryland: "Word comes to
me that Bishop Angus Dun of the
Washington Cathedral is trying to
influence a local home for un~
wed mothers to integrate. Now we
are calling him 'Black Angus'."
An Ohio labor union goon has
suggested that clergymen should
set up a labor union of their own
to which all ministers should be ..
long. This is just about what it
would take to finish us off so far
as Christianity is concerned. Ministers
should belong to nothing ex~
cept their own church and such
fraternal, social and civic groups
as may appeal to them. The downfall
of Christianity, and the trend
to Marxism in the United States
got its greatest impetus by the set~
ing up of the National Council of
Churches which is, in effect, an
international union promoting sub ..
versive causes.
